That would be the "brain dead security" wouldn't it ? :-) I think it's fine to be able to disable pif/exe/com/... running AND to be able to stop them being even saved BUT when you can have only both or neither it's ludicrous. Of course I don't want to have my email program running exe files in the current environment - too much chance for a mistake. But I certainly want to be able to save exe files I am sent. I can't imagine why it HAS to be both or neither. Maybe that's been changed since I last looked at the options.
